Committed $2 billion to the Global Financing Facility for women and newborns
[RECORD.TXT] · cat --full
The Gates Foundation committed more than $2 billion to the Global Financing Facility for Women, Children, and Adolescents — a multilateral initiative designed to end preventable deaths of mothers and newborns in high-burden countries by improving health financing and primary care quality. The GFF targets the 'last mile' of health delivery, reaching isolated communities in the highest-mortality countries across sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

Gates-backed World Mosquito Program reaches 16 million people protected from dengue via Wolbachia method
The World Mosquito Program — backed in part by the Gates Foundation — announced in January 2026 that its Wolbachia-infected mosquito releases had reached over 16.1 million people across multiple countries, including Colombia, Indonesia, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Fiji, Vanuatu, and Vietnam. Wolbachia-carrying Aedes aegypti mosquitoes — which block dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and yellow fever transmission — had established self-sustaining populations in treated cities without requiring ongoing releases. Gold-standard randomised trials in Indonesia showed a 77% reduction in dengue incidence. The program represented one of the largest and most cost-effective vector control deployments in history.
